Gardening to attract birds
My buddy Ray Edel at The Record has a nice story in The Record on Saturday about attracting birds to your garden.
Very informative,
Read it here.
(I think the word "tailed" was dropped in the "red hawk" description…) 🙂

He mentions that it is best to use seedless suet because the birds find it hard to crack the fatty seeds, also (not in the article) the squirrels will supposedly leave it alone if it is plain. Admittedly, I go for cheap, and I never see it without something in it. Anyone know where you can get plain suet inexpensively?

I agree, a good article on creating a bird friendly yard.
